Five Star Gift Ideas

A great Christmas gift idea for your son who enjoys ethnographic studies could be a book that delves into the cultural practices of a specific tribe or community, such as "Dancing Skeletons: Life and Death in West Africa" by Katherine A. Dettwyler or "The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down: A Hmong Child, Her American Doctors, and the Collision of Two Cultures" by Anne Fadiman. Another gift idea could be a documentary or movie related to ethnography, such as "The Nuer" by Timothy Asch and Napoleon Chagnon or "Nanook of the North" by Robert Flaherty. You could also consider a subscription to a magazine or publication focused on ethnography, like "Cultural Anthropology" or "American Ethnologist."

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
